My Threnody - An Angel and the Eternal Silence2002 - Brazil - Neoclassical/Gothic Doom - A one-man band playing very melancholic form of symphonic metal with elements of dark neoclassical music and atmospheric doom.

Already added Green Carnation, not sure about the others yet. I've listened to esoteric and it is very atmospheric so might add that. Mixed feelings about Katatonia despite being having a heavily depressive atmosphere.

Those albums don't really fit this list if you ask me. Lurker of Chalice and Esoteric aren't bands who create beautiful, dreamy music, but rather depressive and crushing music. And there's already a list for those kind of albums on MS. Not my call though.

I did recommend those bands because I like them for their "not so beautiful" atmosphere. I know that this list is meant to be on "personal choices of breathtaking, dreamy and desolate atmospheres of metal" but I do not think that darkspace of ahab create beautiful or dreamy atmosphere. Seriously, that ahab album is one of the most crushing things I've ever listened to

I think I should re-edit that part, as I liked the bands you recommended. All have strong atmospheric content which definitely fits my taste.

You had a few of my favourite albums listed (Alcest, The Gathering, Atoma for instance) in here and based on that I picked a couple of others to listen to. I really liked Enshine and Ahab a couple of bands I hadn't checked out before. Good job with the list.

I like this list. Lemme try some suggestions:
The Ocean - Pelagial (You sink slowly but surely to the ocean floor)
A Storm Of Light - As The Valley Of Death Becomes Us, Our Silver Memories Fade (Like Neurosis and Rosetta, these guys play some crushing post metal)
Year Of No Light - Ausserwelt (Moar post-metal, instrumental)
Fungoid Stream - Oceanus (Quote "If Ahab drags you down, this is the bottom of the sea.")
Weakling - Dead As Dreams (Being the last one standing on "This Entire Fucking Battlefield.")
Earth - The Bees Made Honey In The Lion's Skull (Sitting on the porch of a house in some southwest shantytown.)

And some odd requests:
Sleep - Dopesmoker (One long-ass hike through the never-ending Weedian desert)
Porcupine Tree - Fear Of A Blank Planet (You sit in your room, light hidden by the blinds and lit only by your TV and video game, drowning in your memories until you finally decide to kill yourself.)

Some interesting suggestions here for me to check out, you even added cool passages to go with them

This is a great list. Quite a few favorites on here, as well as lots of bands I haven't checked out, but have heard great things about. IIham, mz, and !J.O.O.E.! have also been a great help as far as stellar recommendations since I joined this site. I will be frequenting this list often.

Also, I wish Jef would just hurry up and reissue Lurker of Chalice on CD.
